Sierra Service Project

Sierra Service Project’s purpose is to build strong connections and resilience among communities, by equipping volunteers in home repair skills and community-based projects. Making necessary home repairs accessible to historically underserved residents allows communities to thrive and individuals to safely age in place. Inherent in the purpose is the specific involvement of youth and young adult volunteers. SSP’s mission is to:

“Build faith and strengthen communities through service to others.”

Join Us for a Summer Week!

Each summer, SSP youth, young adult, and adult volunteers work with partner communities throughout the Western United States between late June and mid-August. Participants do not need any experience with home repair work or power tools to volunteer. Bring your group to volunteer with us to help residents safely age in place, and develop life skills and cultural humility in the process.

Check out summer 2025 program details now! More information on how to prepare for the service-learning experience can be found in the program packets linked on the downloads page.
